Gluten Free Food
Buying groceries that are gluten free can often mean weeding through all kinds of food before finding any without gluten. Those with allergies and celiac diseases know exactly how challenging this can be. At Vested Interest we offer plenty of gluten free options so you can narrow down your search.
Categories of gluten free food include, but are not limited to: salad dressings, marinades, wraps, nuts, pre-packaged meals, cluster snacks, granola, rice, pasta noodles, snack bars, soup broths, chips, spreads, oils, beans, sauces, and more!
While we do offer refrigerated and ready-made items, many of our gluten free offerings are non-perishable, ensuring a longer shelf life for you to enjoy.
Even without allergies or other food-related disorders, many people prefer to buy gluten free foods. This is of course, up to the consumer. Gluten free products provide just as many nutrients as products with gluten in it, so you’re not missing out on any important ingredients.
Some are hesitant to seek out gluten free foods, as they believe that there are not enough options out there, or that they may not taste as good. These are both myths that can easily be disproved when you see our large selection of tasty gluten free foods. You’ll be amazed at the level of variety that can be found in gluten free foods, and you’ll likely find yourself using them as cooking staples.
Many of our gluten free options are also vegan and keto friendly, so be sure to check out the ingredients of any products you’re interested in purchasing. If you’re unsure of what’s in certain products, ask us, we’ll be happy to help.
Vegan Foods
Vegan foods can be difficult to find, or are often limited to a small section at the grocery store. When you shop at Vested Interest for vegan foods, you’ll find a wide selection of products, many of which are locally sourced. Gone will be the days of searching the limited aisles of the grocery store for the vegan products you’ve been looking for. We have just what you’re looking for.
We recognize the importance of adhering to a plant based diet, but also doing so in a way that meets your nutritional needs. Many of the products we carry are healthy, tasty choices. Many of the foods we sell come pre-packaged in sealed bags, jars, and containers, so you can count on food purchased from us to last for a long time, without worry of having to keep them cold.
We offer a wide variety of vegan products such as sauces, nuts, legumes, wraps, granola, soups, oils, and even some candies! That’s just a short list of all of our offerings. Check out our inventory to see all of the vegan products we carry.
Please feel free to ask our staff to show you our wide variety of Vegan foods in our food room! We are always happy to help.
Keto Foods
Many people are looking to start keto diets, for all kinds of health related reasons. Figuring out what can and can’t be eaten on a keto diet is challenging. Luckily, we sell a wide variety of keto-friendly foods, so you can feel confident in knowing you’re adhering to a keto diet.
For those unaware: Keto is an incredibly low-carb diet. Many people have found this diet helpful for burning fat. Others have tried it because it makes them feel better and healthier. Aside from these reasons, many people have found a keto diet works well for them because of the wide variety of foods that you’re still able to eat!
We offer keto foods such as wraps, clusters, granolas, milks, rice, snack bars, pastas, pre-made meals, and much more! Many of our keto offerings are also vegan and gluten-free. Be sure to check the ingredients of each product before purchasing.
Much like our vegan offerings, many of our products are non-perishable and come in eco-friendly packaging, including sealed bags, jars, and containers. Buying eco-friendly packaged food is a great way to eliminate as much waste as possible, as many of these packages are reusable or recyclable.
If you are looking for keto selection, then Vested Interest is the place to come! Our staff is always here and are happy to advise you on which foods are considered keto. It’s important to consult with a physician before starting any new diet, and once you’ve done so, we would love to help you select items that match your tastes.
Root Furniture
Root furniture is a beautiful, unique, and high-quality option for your home. Root furniture is made from natural and recycled materials such as branches, tree roots, pallets, wood, and more.
There are plenty of different types of furniture that can be made from these materials, including chairs, tables ,night stands, benches, shelves, displays, and even bed frames. Depending on the piece you get, root furniture can often be used both indoors and outdoors, in warm or cold climates.
Root furniture is incredibly strong and built to last. No piece of root furniture is like any other, so any root furniture you own is 100% unique. Root furniture gets the job done, and also makes for an impressive conversation piece when visitors see it.
Root furniture is often uniquely shaped due to the use of stumps, branches, twisted wood and roots. They’re typically on the more unusual side in terms of appearance, but in a way that’s still incredibly appealing to the eyes. You’ll love your one of a kind root furniture, and so will your guests.
As a result of its unique build and sustainable manufacturing process, root furniture is an incredibly interesting type of furniture, both for those who know more about it, and those who are less familiar with the concept.

Antique Furniture
If you prefer to own older furniture, you’re in luck when you shop with us. We carry antique furniture, which always makes for an excellent addition to your home. Shopping for antique furniture versus new furniture is a great choice for two reasons.
First of all, most antique furniture is still here because it was built to last. The craftsmanship that went into these items still show to this day. They tend to last longer than some newer furniture. Second of all, it’s much more eco-friendly to buy pre-owned furniture versus new, mass produced furniture. This also means keeping antique furniture out of landfills. Why get rid of something that still works? With antique furniture, you’ll feel comforted knowing you have a strong piece of furniture, and you’re being eco-friendly by keeping it in your home.
Furniture often purchased new requires assembly after you take it home. This can often be time consuming and even sometimes confusing. When you purchase our antique pre-built furniture, you can simply pack it up, bring it home, and use it immediately.
Antique furniture is also beneficial when it comes to furnishing your home with “trend proof” products. Antique furniture can be incredibly versatile and timeless, allowing it to easily adapt to any other styles you may already have in your home. When it comes time to do some updating around the house, it’s likely you won’t find the need to switch out your antique furniture, due to its staying power.
At Vested Interest, you’ll find it all. Antique beds, seats, tables, night stands, and other furnishings from years past. Many of these pieces are handmade and custom, so whatever you pick up will be a unique piece in your living room, bedroom, kitchen, or anywhere else you place it. Shop with us to own a piece of history.

"This is from a small business owner to another. I went to Vested Interest Trading today after a friend had mentioned you guys sell gluten free foods and dairy free items. My wife has a lot of intolerance. This was my first time visiting your store, we have owned Callander Gas Bar for over 2 years now but we didn't live in the area and never knew about your store. We have moved to North Bay on May 15th, so I went in to have a look around. I was greeted by a young lady named Olivia, very pleasant from the time I entered the store, in my 41 years I have never and I mean never had a more pleasant shopping experience in my life. Olivia was very professional, kind, helpful and knowledgeable about your products. She has definitely gained your business another regular customer, I truly wish I could receive service like I did at your store in more places. At the end of my shopping she even carried my basket down to the cash. I was honestly blown away by the service she provided for me today, please note I'm not one that goes out of his way to give reviews but during these trying times for all small businesses I really felt the need to bring this to your attention. We always hear about the bad and the ugly. Not as much of the positive feedback, I felt the need to bring this to your attention and hopefully it puts a smile on your face. You have an amazing employee there who seems to enjoy the atmosphere and that doesn't happen without having a great boss and coworkers. Keep up the great work, you will be seeing us on a regular basis."
